Dubai, April 29, 2015: As important as it is to consume quality fruits and vegetables for a healthy diet, it is equally important to ensure that these food items are cleaned the right way. Experts in this area, Arm & Hammer, the leading manufacturers of baking-soda based solutions, reveal that the healthiest of food items could in fact be doing more harm to your body because of the chemicals and toxic pesticides and herbicides that they are infused with. “Most of us use plain water to wash our fruits and vegetables to clean harmful agents including pesticides, wax, bacteria and dirt. What we don’t realize is that these pesticides are strong agents that are designed to withstand even rain. Water may help in cleaning the surface dirt off the food items but may not suffice in removing the pesticides. These chemicals and other added ingredients can be detrimental to the health of the consumer” says Praji Aravind, Brand Manager for Arm & Hammer household. “While we live in a relatively safe part of the world where the products that are available are of a very good quality and strict measures have been put in place to avoid pesticide-heavy foods, it is still important that we use the right ingredients to wash our fruits and vegetables before consuming them. In US, people have been using Arm & Hammer baking soda for decades for cleaning Fruits & Vegetables. Consumer research says over 95% of US house hold has got the yellow Arm & Hammer pack in their house. A product of Church & Dwight Co. Inc. from USA, Arm & Hammer Fruit and Vegetable wash, made with Natural pure baking soda, is one of the world’s leading cleaning products. It provides the safest way to clean dirt and residue off fresh fruit and vegetables and can be used very easily on a daily basis. In depth studies conducted with baking soda show that the ingredient helps kill bacteria and viruses and helps break down wax.
